I’m getting rather tired of these postings. This is not “News” it’s a joke from a website and should be labeled as such. Really I thought Ipodlounge learned their lesson from the last napster bashing by palmer.

I appreciate good satire like anyone else, but this site has never provided it. (I’ll stick with The Onion, thanks).
This is shameless fanboy-ism, and not worthy of the ipodlounge homepage.

Bugger off Bill Palmer… you’re not even close to funny.
I’m a big fan of iPodLounge, however these postings are really starting to p*ss me off.

Yes but my point is, Bill Palmer stole a pic off the napster site and from the airdisasters site to make a useless article (he did nothing ‘cept copy and paste a coupla pics) and in usual bill palmer style, it wasnt even funny
